Didn't Superior have an unreleased album?

I seem to recall they had recorded an album just before the band broke up, and it was never released. Anyone recall? If so, it's a pity.

Yes they did -- I forget the name of it, but from what I remember it wasn't finished as some of the guys didn't want to continue with it ......... they sent me one track off it and it sounded like it was right off Ultima Ratio, and had a good amount of Queensryche vibe to it ....... of course, being a super fan boy at the time, I begged for it to be released but the guys had already made up their minds not to continue ........ such a shame, I've loved this band from day one ....... one of the ProgPower highlights for me ever (thanks Glenn) was getting to see them live ........great, great band and Bernd Basmer was a cool dude as well..........

yes, "New World Order" was the title I recall.

Larry, too bad you couldn't upload it.

Another example was the folky/proggy psych band "Fields." (with a period). "Hollow Mountain" was recorded and mastered, and right before it was to get released, the record label dropped them. There are many fans like myself who would love someday to hear it, like New World Order.

***Yeah that's the name - I had forgotten .............. many, many computers since then and I don't know if I even have it anymore ....... it followed me for many years and I'd be very disappointed if I actually looked for it and couldn't find it .......
